Bug Description
Today, my Yahoo and AOL mailboxes wouldn't connect.
Evolution displayed a "memory allocation error"
I have searched and it looks like plenty of others have the same problem.
When you fix this, please update the powerpc one too.

This same bug is affecting Evolution in Ubuntu 18.04 even the mainstream x86_64 distro. It sounds as if it is a problem with the GNUTLS package.
